Adding pause markers to highlighted objects

here is a simple way that allows a pause marker to be added to every highlighted object.  This is a very convenient feature if you want the next image to be started manually and have a large number of images you want to do this for. This function saves time by eliminating the tedious task of setting the pause markers individually.

This is how you proceed:

1. Highlight the objects you want to provide with pause markers. By right-clicking some empty space within a track you are offered a number of different options, e.g. highlighting one image after the other with the Ctrl key held down. See also Highlighting objects.

2. Unless you have already created a marker track in your project, do so now. Right-click a track head, select Insert track Marker.

3. Now right-click the marker track and select Add pause marker for selected objects. Following this all the selected objects will be provided with a pause marker.

The Pause Markers are set 0.1 seconds before the corresponding objects. This safety distance should not be reduced to allow reliable and timely stopping of the Locator at all times.
